Home Improvement was an American television sitcom starring actor/comedian Tim Allen, and loosely based on his stand-up comedy routine. It ran for eight seasons on ABC from September 1991 to May 1999. Reruns are currently on national syndication and on cable television stations such as TBS and WGN-TV in the US, Network 7 in Australia, and can be seen on digital channels ABC1 and the Disney Channel in the UK. It will begin airing on Nick at Nite in Fall 2007.
Premise
Set in Royal Oak, Michigan (a suburb of Detroit), the series centers on the antics of the Taylor family, which, along with Tim, included his pedantic wife Jill (Patricia Richardson), and their three mischievous sons, the popular and athletic Bradley Michael "Brad" (Zachery Ty Bryan), comedian and intellectual Randall William "Randy" (Jonathan Taylor Thomas), and the youngest, Mark Jason, (Taran Noah Smith), whose fictitious middle name was not mentioned in the series, but in a post-finale interview.
Additional focus was given to Tim's job as a television personality on his very own 'home improvement' show, called Tool Time. On this show-within-a-show, Tim was joined by his friend and mild-mannered assistant Al Borland (played by Richard Karn) Tim would often comment on Als mother's weight, although she was never seen beyond an obscured arm, and the friendly nature of this ribbing took a serious turn when, in the final season, Al's mother died at a restaurant (when Al told her he would marry his girlfriend Trudy). Tim, excellent as a salesman and TV personality but spectacularly accident-prone as a handyman, often caused hilarious disasters on and off the set, to the consternation of his co-workers and family. Many of Tim's accidents were caused by the application of his mantra, "More power!" to do-it-yourself situations.
